Receive Highland Email at any Address

Students receive a free GroupWise Email account when they enroll at HCC (firstname.lastname@highland.edu). You will receive important communication from teachers and staff through this account. But if you prefer using different email address - one you use more frequently - you can easily re-direct your Highland email to another address. Ask the library staff for more information or assistance.

Great Deals on Cosmetology Services for Students

The College now uses an automated emergency notification system to alert students and employees when the campus closes due to inclement weather or other emergency situations. The system will call students with a pre-recorded message from the College alerting students to the closure. Because our students commute, the phone calls will be made around 6:30 a.m. when the campus is closing in the morning. This new notification system will be in addition to the current process of notifying students through the radio and TV media and our College web site.
